about

The title of this piece comes from the Chinese Zodiac. Each animal is said to represent certain personality traits, and to interact with the other animals in various ways. The snake and pig are said to be enemies. I imagined the two beasts in a funeral dance of inevitability: the pig and snake sway together; the pig knows from the start that it will be devoured by the end, just as the snake knows that by trying to consume the whole pig--as its gluttonous urge demands--it will die, but neither can go against their own nature. It is a piece about being unable to go against drives that lead toward self-destruction.
